Apple hiring editorial managers for App Store
If you've ever wanted to apply to work at Apple, now might be a good time to check out the job board over at TechCrunch. Late last week, Apple posted several editorial positions designed to help weed out the good apps from the bad in the App Store. Another position is geared toward promoting apps both on the desktop and in the App Store, leading TechCrunch to believe that there could be an App Store for OS X some time in the future.
Apple would not be breaking any new ground if the App Store is also pushed to the Mac. Bodega by freshcode was launched in August 2009 and has seen a growing number of users in the months since. With the concerns over editorial standards in the App Store that have plagued it since launch, I'd rather Apple focus on cleaning the App Store up before expanding it beyond the iPhone/iPad.
